Kratom Sales near Grade Schools busted

The article describes  a person selling  Kratom water  for 100 baht per bottle, or 30 baht per glass.

My understanding possession for medical reasons is legal, however sales in food or drink are not.

Football Spending

I had put out the word that I would no lonher sponsor football teams. It's not just about the money, but how it is spent. 

I was asked to help out with Sunday's participation fee. So I did. 

Threw bundles of 100 baht notes (US$3) in the air, the quickest players got the money. Also donated some lunch money. 

The team won three games, lost the final game in a shootout. 

I never believed a shootout should determine the winners, it's just plain luck.

Feels like the start of Hot Season

Hot temperatures are in the forecast

Air quality may not be that great either. Last two days it smelled like an electrical fire was about to start. Smoldering rubber. Thought my screens were dying. Syepped outside in the morning and realized burning smell is in the air. In creased temperatures may bring on local thunderstorms สกลนคร Sakon Nakhon
